Summary "Lord Lister No. 0117: De museumdiefstal" by Theo von Blankensee and Kurt Matull is a fictional detective novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Lord Edward Lister, also known as John C. Raffles, and his secretary Charly Brand, who face financial difficulties and contemplate a scheme to restore their fortune while navigating through a world of crime and intrigue. The opening of the novel introduces us to the financial troubles of Lord Lister and Charly, which serves as a catalyst for their adventure. As they discuss their empty coffers, Lord Lister remains optimistic, hinting at an impending plan to resolve their monetary issues. The narrative is enriched by Lord Lister's recounting of past cases and exploits, revealing his dual life as a gentleman thief and a detective. His flamboyant personality and keen intellect set the stage for a blend of elegance and cunning, foreshadowing the challenges they will face as they become embroiled in the criminal underworld of Amsterdam.
